an increased purse structure for 2019 Crate 602 Sportsman events. All series races
– in both the North and South Regions – will pay $1,500 to win.
“Last season,
we expanded our Short Track Super Series to include Crate 602 Sportsman and the
support was tremendous,� STSS organizer Brett Deyo said. “We wanted to thank our
racers and show them our appreciation by bumping up their payout.�
In addition
to the victor receiving $1,500 at all series events, second-place will now take
home a boosted $700.

attendance in their region will share in point fund money.
